Definitions
- This invention relates to a method for producing superconducting materials of oxide type ceramics and, more particularly, to a method for producing the superconducting materials which is improved so that raw materials can readily be uniformly mixed, localization of composition can be prevented and thus uniform compositions can be obtained.
- the ceramic superconducting materials are generally synthesized by application of powder metallurgy. That is, for example, Y-Ba-Cu-O ceramics (YBCO) are obtained by mixing powders of raw materials BaCO3, Y2O3 and CuO, calcining the mixture at 900°C to carry out a solid phase reaction, then grinding the mixture and press molding the resulting powder into pellets and then sintering the molded product in an oxygen atmosphere.
- YBa-Cu-O ceramics YBCO
- YBCO Y-Ba-Cu-O ceramics
- uniformly mixing the above three raw material powders is relatively difficult and besides, mixing requires a long time due to the difference in specific gravity, shape and particle size.
- the object of this invention is to provide a method for producing superconducting materials having a uniform texture and a high sintered density and current density with no problems mentioned above.
- this invention provides a method for production of oxide type superconducting materials of layered perovskite structure containing Cu (copper) and O (oxygen) as basic constituting elements wherein a raw material CuO and the other raw material, i.e., a carbonate or oxide or mixture thereof are allowed to react previously to obtain at least one intermediate product containing Cu and O and then these intermediate products (in case two or more intermediate products are produced) or the intermediate product and other raw material (in case only one intermediate product is produced) are subjected to final reaction to obtain an oxide of a layered perovskite structure having the desired final composition and texture.
- a raw material CuO and the other raw material i.e., a carbonate or oxide or mixture thereof are allowed to react previously to obtain at least one intermediate product containing Cu and O and then these intermediate products (in case two or more intermediate products are produced) or the intermediate product and other raw material (in case only one intermediate product is produced) are subjected to final reaction to obtain an oxide of a layered perovskite structure
- A is at least one selected from Sc, Y, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy( Ho, Er, Tm, Yb and Lu or a mixture of two or more of them
- B is at least one selected from Ba, Sr and Ca or a mixture of two or more of them
- C is Cu or a Cu based mixture of Cu with at least one selected from Ti, V, Cr,Mn, Fe, Co, Ni and Zn or with two or more of them, and ⁇ is more than zero but less than 0.5; raw materials comprising compounds containing A and C, respectively are mixed and then the mixture is calcined to produce an oxide containing A and C and separately raw materials comprising compounds containing B and C, respectively are mixed and then the mixture is calcined to obtain an oxide containing B and C and the resulting two oxides are mixed and sintered in an oxygen atmosphere.
- Bi2O3 and CuO are mixed and the mixture is calcined to produce a first intermediate product containing Bi and Cu of the above two oxides.
- SrCO3, CaCO3 and CuO are mixed and the mixture is calcined to produce a second intermediate product containing Sr, Ca and Cu.
- the first intermediate product and the second intermediate product are mixed and the mixture is sintered in an oxygen atmosphere to obtain Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O type oxide of layered perovskite structure.
- the pellets were sintered at 1000°C for 4 hours in an oxygen atmosphere to produce a superconducting material of a triple-layer perovskite structure deficient in oxygen.
- the average particle size of powders in the above steps is preferably 0.2 - 0.5 ⁇ m.
- the characteristics of the resulting superconducting material were measured to obtain a critical temperature of 91 K and a current density of 5000 A/cm2.
- Figs. 1 and 2 are photographs which show the crystal structure of the superconducting material obtained in this example and a conventional superconducting material, respectively.
- black portions are cavities or vacancies which are discontinuous portions in crystal structure.
- the material of this example of Fig. 1 had very few vacancy portion and had a high sintered density.
- Fig. 2 which shows a conventional superconducting material indicates a great number of vacancy portions and this means a low sintered density.
- the sintered density of the former was 95% and that of the latter was 60 - 70%.
- A is one element selected from Sc, Y, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb and Lu or a mixture of two or more of these elements
- B is one element selected from Ba, Sr and Ca or a mixture of two or more of these elements
- C is Cu or a mixture mainly composed of Cu which comprises Cu with one element selected from Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni and Zn or with two or more elements selected from these elements, and ⁇ is more than zero but less than 0.5. It is effective for obtaining a further uniform texture to mix an oxide containing A and C and an oxide containing B and C and then calcine the mixture in the same manner as above.
- This invention has the effects based on the above-mentioned construction and such an action that superconducting materials having a uniform texture and markedly high sintered density and current density can very easily be produced.
- Average particle size of the powders in the above steps is preferably 0.2 - 0.5 ⁇ m.

- ⁇ is more than zero but less than 0.5. It is effective for obtaining a further uniform texture to mix an oxide containing A and C in the above compositional formula and an oxide containing B and C and then calcine the mixture in the same manner as above.
- This invention has the effects based on the above-mentioned construction and such an action that superconducting materials having a uniform texture and markedly high in sintered density and current density can very easily be produced.
- the average particle size of the powders in the steps above is preferably 0.2 - 0.5 ⁇ m.
- the characteristics of the thus obtained superconducting material were measured to obtain a critical temperature of 91 K and a current density of 1000 A/cm2.
- the material had a sintered density of 95%.
- a target material of 100 mm in diameter and 5 mm in thickness was prepared from the above composition and held on a backing plate and a thin film of YBa2Cu3O 7- ⁇ having a thickness of 5000 ⁇ was formed by a sputtering method comprising irradiation with Ar ion. The characteristics of this thin film were measured to obtain a critical temperature of 90 K and a current density of 2500 A/cm2.
- A is one element selected from Sc, Y, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb and Lu or a mixture of two or more of these elements
- B is one element selected from Ba, Sr and Ca or a mixture of two or more of these elements
- C is Cu or a mixture mainly composed of Cu which comprises Cu with one element selected from Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni and Zn or with two or more elements selected from these elements
- ⁇ is more than zero but less than 0.5. It is effective for obtaining a further uniform texture to mix an oxide containing A and C in the above-mentioned compositional formula and an oxide containing B and C and then calcine the mixture in the same manner as above.
- BiCaSrCu2O 7- ⁇ Bi based oxide superconducting material represented by BiCaSrCu2O 7- ⁇
- this invention is not limited to this type, but can be similarly applied to other Bi based oxide superconducting materials.
- This invention has been explained with reference to a Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O type oxide superconducting material, this invention can also be applied to superconducting materials of Tl-Ca-Ba-Cu-O (for example, Tl2Ca2Ba2Cu3O 7- ⁇ , Tl2Ca1Ba2Cu2O 7- ⁇ and the like).
- the product was filled in a pipe of 5 mm in outer diameter, 4 mm in inner diameter and 300 mm in length and was sintered to produce a superconducting material having a triple-layer perovskite structure deficient in oxygen and having the composition of YBa2Cu3O 7- ⁇ .
- Fig. 3 schematically shows the sintering means in the above example.
- 1 indicates a silica glass tube having an outer diameter of 180 mm, an inner diameter of 174 mm and a length of 1400 mm which supports pipe 3 of Al2O3 by means of supporting member 2 of SiC.
- 4 indicates a raw material powder and was filled in pipe 3 as mentioned above and the pipe was closed.
- 5 indicates a high frequency coil which is provided outside the silica glass tube 1 in such a manner that it can freely move in axial direction.
- the high frequency coil 5 was formed to have a length of, for example, 20 mm to provide a high temperature zone w of 10 - 30 mm where pipe 3 and raw material powder 4 were heated. Then, the high frequency coil 5 was moved at a speed of 30 mm/Hr from the right end portion of pipe 3 in the direction indicated by arrow and accordingly said high temperature zone also moved gradually to the left. By repeating this operation three times, it was possible to perform solid phase sintering and/or liquid phase sintering due to partial dissolution of raw material powder filled in pipe 3 . In this case, since the high temperature zone gradually moved from the right end of pipe 3 to the left, temperature gradient was imparted to the raw material powder 4 in the pipe 3 and this causes alignment of crystal grains and crystal axis in the axial direction of pipe 3 .
- raw material powders were calcined, then disintegrated and ground, press molded into pellets of 5 mm in diameter x 2 mm and then sintered at 950°C for 4 hours in an oxygen atmosphere.
- Crystal grains of YBa2Cu3O 7- ⁇ in conventional examples were distributed in the form of amorphous particles or masses and the direction of crystal axis was not alinged at all.
- it was recognized that the crystal grains of the product of this example were completely aligned in the axial direction of pipe 3 .
